The Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia in Islamabad, in collaboration with the Pakistan Red Crescent Society (PRCS), held a blood donation drive under the campaign, “Donate Blood, Save Lives.” This activity was held as part of the events in celebrating the 80th Independence Day of Indonesia and the 75th Anniversary of Indonesia-Pakistan Bilateral Relations.
The event was officially opened by Chandra W. Sukotjo, Ambassador-designate of the Republic of Indonesia to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
“The blood donation is a powerful reminder of the extraordinary impact that our blood donors make in the community. Not only have you given the gift of life to patients who need transfusion, you are also the beacon of hope and strength for their grateful families,” Ambassador said in front of Chairperson of PRCS, Farzana Naek, and PRCS volunteers, as well as potential donors from ASEAN diplomats, Islamabad Foreign Women’s Association (IFWA), Indonesian community including students, and Pakistani community.
